Showing Original Post only (View all)Bashing Uber and Lyft? [View all]
I'm sick of the misinformed and ignorant posts about these driver apps
One poster compared me to a child molester..really?
Fact: background checks ARE required for employment by both companies.
Fact: They don't pay well, I made $93 driving all day yesterday and that does not include gas or water for clients
and I still need to pay taxes from the $93
Fact: Most riders are great but occasionally you get a rider who leaves trash or clips their nails or just reeks of body
odor...in YOUR private car..and I won't comment about trump supporters
Fact: Uber and Lyft rely heavily on ratings and ride acceptance, you get score of 4's consistently on a scale of 1 thru 5 and you WILL have your account closed
Fact: They do have insurance for riders and the drivers, they also require car seats for small children (but riders will lie about the need)
Fact: They ARE considerably cheaper than taxis, I've taken a fair share of disabled riders and they cannot afford a regular taxi so for them we are a godsend
Are they perfect?...hell no but If your having a hard time finding a job or just need extra cash they fit the bill.
On edit: let the flames begin
